Colin Farrell exits 'Arthur and Lancelot'

Colin Farrell has dropped out of Warner Bros' Arthur and Lancelot, it has been reported.

The Total Recall star exited the David Dobkin-helmed project due to scheduling conflicts, Deadline understands.

Farrell was in talks to star as Lancelot in the film, which promises to be an action comedy take on the subject matter. James McAvoy and Gary Oldman have been linked with the roles of Arthur and Merlin, respectively, though neither have deals in place.

Relative newcomers Joel Kinnaman and Kit Harington were previously attached to the movie, but Warner pulled the plug on production, fearing that the film's $110 million budget warranted big-name actors.
